A little later one of the large plate glass windows on the north side of the Otten Cafe, corner Church sireet and Railroad avenue, was blown oul. The hole was boarded up and the other win¬ dows braced to keep them in place.

The election it'i Nelson AshiUiwn as :i member of the Ever Ready Hose i-om- pany was approveil.
It was decided lo have the eleitiii- current on all day Tuesday as the truck house of Excelsior Hook and Latl¬ der (.'ompany, the voting place as Ihe fourth district, has recently been wired for electric lights in each booth.
The lommunication from President Peters and the General Manager of the Long Lsland Railroad referring to the contlition of the subway was referred to cmiiisel.
Contracts were given oul for$lis,500 worth of insurance on the power house and contents beside n\:e for $30,000 for the boilers. The former was divided between Henry P. Libby, Ortell & Lu¬ cas, Albin N. Johnson, Clarence .N. l-;dwards, ("harles C. .Moore, and Ros¬ well Davis.
The other insurance, which insures the boilers and any person who niight be injured by the explosion of any of the boilers, was awarded lo the Hart¬ ford Steam Boiler Inspection and In¬ surance Company.
Village Treasurer John E. Golding reportetl the amounts in the various funtis Nov. 1, as follows: General fund, .$270.40; sireel fund, $511.51; water, .$3905.30; light, $19),!.Ul; Board of Health, $113 5:1; interest, $S7.07; tax arrears, $ltSS.til; fire ile- parlmotil, $ls4.47 ; street light, $3595.- 19; light extension, $8>3.01; water ex¬ tension, $2<t9.01 ; water sinking, .*t;293.i::; light sinking, $7,500.00; sidewalk, ^l'2.1'2, aid i:rosswalk,^ $307.55. :

The^ondition of the subway connect¬ ing the east and west bound tracks of; tfie Long Island Railroad was talked of. Several weeks ago comjilaiiit was made to President Gunning of the lil¬ thy condition of this place, and he wrote to Ralpli Peters, president of the railroad, telling him of the ileplorable contlitions. He slated in the letter that the draip, supposed to carry rain water off, was slopped up and that nuisances were being commitletl in the subway continually making the place unfit for the passage of gentlemen, to say nothing of women. He suggested that the place be flushed out daily and added that the village wouid do any¬ thing in its power to aid in the abate¬ ment of the nuisances.
In his reply Mr. Peters tersely stated that the nuisances referred to were committed by the undesirable element of Freeport and that if the village could furnish no adetjuate police pro¬ tection the nuisances would probably continue. However, the drain and the i broker leader which allowed rain water to collect in the subway was repaired by the railroad company.
The filthy conditions pre-existent however continued intermittently and Mr. Gunning presented the matter to ' the Board al the meeting. One of the \ trustees remarked that the affair was not up to the Board of Trustees but to the Long Island Railroad. The Board referred the matter lo the Village; Counsel. Mr. Gunning suggested that a trap be set, some perpetrator of the nuisance be caught and fined heavily. No action was taken by thc Board on i his suggestion.
Local Topics
he \'illage Board's kind action turn¬ ing the electric current on all day Tuesday has got them into hot water. VVe liketl it so wel! and misseil it so much the next tlay that we all want it
I all the lime now.
President Gunning informs us that things are about in readiness for the day current but the date for turning on has been jiostponetl to Dec. 15, ta give a chance to make necessary changes in
, wiring on lines, incident lo putting in larger pole.s. If this work is not done by Dec. 15 thc current will lie turnetl on all the time an\ho',v.
The Ijuestion of discussion at the : Press Table at the next meeting of the '. V'illage Boartl will be "should smoking ibe prohibited during Board sessions." i President Detmer when in ollice said , that ladies were ajit to allenii the meetings al any time .md there should ' be no smoking but since his term this rule has nol been strictly adhered to, as the members of the Board consiiler they are entitled to what solace they can get frorn the soothing weeil while transacting the village business.
I met .ludge Jackson at Mineola yes¬ terday. .Mr. Jackson was defeated for re-election with the rest of thc Repub¬ lican ticket Tuesday, but does not look as though he hatl lost much sleeji over the result. .Mr. .Iackson accejited this ollife six years ago without solicitation on his Jiart, and 1 really think that
, while he would have given faithful at¬ tention to the wori< of the oflice if el¬ ected, he is more than half glad to get back into jirivate life for awhile.

; to be, but I'll venture to predict that man with the excellent reconl of Kiigar Jackson a.-^ County Judge will be the choice of h:.-: jiarly for a higher judicial ofiice.

Saved Two Children
It is undoubtedly owing to the jires- ence of mind of Wilbur Raynor that Miss Shea and a small schtKil girl, about 7 years of age, were not instant¬ ly killed at the Village avenue crossing here on Wednesday.
Miss Shea and the little girl, whose name could nol be learned, were stand¬ ing awaiting the passing of the 12:33 west bound train at the crossing, and when the train had passed the two, without waiting for the raising of the gates by the flagman, started to walk around the east end of the gates to cross the tracks.
Just at that moment an eaet bounti express train came in sight arountl the deep curve.
Mr. Raynor, whn was standing near¬ by, seeing the approaching train, called to the two as they were about to attempt to cross the tracks, antl, perceiving that his call was unheard, he rushed after them and just succeed¬ ed in drawing them off of the tracks as the express ilasbed by, the wind of the passing train whinjjing the faces of the three ijaite sharply.
There is no doubt that if Mr. Raynor had not succeeded in reaching Miss Shea and the schtxil girl just as he did, they would have beer^ ground to pieces under the wheels of the train.
Mr. Raynor is being highly compli¬ mented for his presenile of mind, antl his success in saving the taro from in¬ stant death.—Times.

The wind and storm playetl havoc Friday in this village, blowing out win¬ dows and parting lines on some of the smaller boats in the Freeport river and Woodcleft canal.
When the storm was at its height the wind blew in one of the large windows in the front of Henry Gobetz' store on Main street. The proprietor and his assistants soon moved the slock out of reach of the rain and within a short lime had another glass in.
A little later one of the large plate glass windows on the north side of the Otten Cafe, corner Church sireet and Railroad avenue, was blown oul. The hole was boarded up and the other win¬ dows braced to keep them in place.

Saved Two Children
It is undoubtedly owing to the jires- ence of mind of Wilbur Raynor that Miss Shea and a small schtKil girl, about 7 years of age, were not instant¬ ly killed at the Village avenue crossing here on Wednesday.
Miss Shea and the little girl, whose name could nol be learned, were stand¬ ing awaiting the passing of the 12:33 west bound train at the crossing, and when the train had passed the two, without waiting for the raising of the gates by the flagman, started to walk around the east end of the gates to cross the tracks.
Just at that moment an eaet bounti express train came in sight arountl the deep curve.
Mr. Raynor, whn was standing near¬ by, seeing the approaching train, called to the two as they were about to attempt to cross the tracks, antl, perceiving that his call was unheard, he rushed after them and just succeed¬ ed in drawing them off of the tracks as the express ilasbed by, the wind of the passing train whinjjing the faces of the three ijaite sharply.
There is no doubt that if Mr. Raynor had not succeeded in reaching Miss Shea and the schtxil girl just as he did, they would have beer^ ground to pieces under the wheels of the train.
Mr. Raynor is being highly compli¬ mented for his presenile of mind, antl his success in saving the taro from in¬ stant death.—Times.
